so I just went service the car and replace oil.

I had a look at the dip stick and what do I see?

...

NOTHING!!!

The bloody thing is BONE dry. Somewhere along the lines, the oil has been drained or vanished. From AVO who put the new motor in, to headsex, to dyno-mite, to here now! Not pointing fingures but fark me! Donno if I went to calder with no oils, etc etc. My fault for not checking oil levels on a regular basis. New motor hasnt even done 5000km's!

Anyway hoping no damage has been done. Will call Dion tomorrow and ask if he had looked at my engine oil levels when tuning the car.

Put some PENRITE premium full synthetic 0-40w. 7L worth! 60$ per 5L bottles.

what oil was the motor run in on?

if its had multiple tunes and your circuit racing while using 0w-40, then yeah you would have used a fair bit of oil... especially if it has exessive blow by

might be a good idea to put an oil sep/catch can and monitor it...

maybe use some 10w next time and see how it goes...
